When President Murmu highlighted plight of undertrial prisoners in a Constitution Day speech
President Droupadi Murmu, at the Constitution Day Celebrations organised by the Supreme Court on 26 November, 20222, spoke about her own experience as the governor of Jharkhand in addressing the growing number of undertrial prisoners who were languishing in jails. She also recalled her days as a political activist in Odisha to highlight that the excessive cost of litigation was a major impediment to the delivery of justice. Appreciating instances of speedy delivery of justice, she urged the executive, judiciary, and legislature to evolve an effective dispute resolution mechanism to mitigate the people’s plight.

I am holding on to each and every word spoken by Her Excellency here. Thank you print for bringing this
Good point made by Hon. President Draupadi Murmu. We need the Constitution Document to be translated into 23 Local Indian Languages, Not just English. It also helps understand the Constitution better for those who don't know English. Colleges should start teaching the Constitutional Document and its Basics to Students in Local Languages. This will also help create responsible citizen who know our rights and this will indirecrly reduce corruption. When every Teenager knows his/her rights, No Political Party can play with us by trying to change the Constitution to benefit them. This will also inspire Youngsters aspire to become Lawyers and Judges, which our country greatly lacks.
🙏🙏🙏
Murmu Ji you are Preseident now and above PM Mo D i.e. not a governer. If you can't get things done by PM Mo D, nobody else can. Call PM and ask him to do what you want things done.
